Prediction: 2-1
Leeds United
All eyes will be on Weston Homes Stadium when Peterborough United and Leeds United take on each other in a highly-anticipated FA Cup game on Sunday afternoon. The Posh have been scoring goals for fun of late and they are likely to stick to their attacking style of play. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team ahead of the visit of Leeds United.
The Whites, on the other hand, aim to build on a 3-0 win over Birmingham City. As Daniel Farke’s men are fully focused on securing the Premier League promotion, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the home side. Samuel Byram limped off with injury in the last league match, with Junior Firpo likely to step up, while all Luke Ayling, Pascal Struijk, Jamie Shackleton, and Stuart Dallas are out of contention through injuries.
Highlighted Player (Liam Cooper):
Liam Cooper is a Scotland international, who was born in Kingston Upon Hull, England. Cooper was eligible to play for both England and Scotland, but he decided to represent the Scotts on the international stage.
The Leeds United defender, who is capable of playing at left and centre back, received his first ever call-up for Scotland on 10 March 2016 for a friendly match against Denmark, but he did not make his debut for the senior team back then. Liam Cooper began his career at Hull City and, after spending several seasons on loan at Carlisle United and Huddersfield Town he joined Chesterfield in 2013.
On 13 August, 2014, he signed a three-year deal with Leeds United for an undisclosed fee. Speaking of individual honours, Liam Cooper was named Young Player of the Year for the 2007/2008 season (Hull City). It has to be noted that he won Football League Two with Chesterfield in the 2013/2014 season.
Highlighted Team (Peterborough):
Founded in 1934, Peterborough United are a professional club that competes in the League One. The Posh play their home games at London Road Stadium, the venue with the capacity of 15,314. Peterborough’s home colour is blue, whilst the colour of their away kit is blue. The Posh have the third kit as well where yellow and black are the dominant colours.
Peterborough United’s biggest success came in the 1964/1965 when the club booked their place in the FA Cup quarter-finals. Chelsea, though, proved to be a big catch for the Posh, beating them 5-1 in London. It has to be noted that Peterborough United made it to the Football League Cup semis in the 1965/1966 season, with the team losing to WBA in the two-legged tie.
The likes of Cambridge United and Northampton Town are considered the club’s main rivals. The Posh have built a rivalry with Huddersfield Town, with fans seeing MK Dons as rivals as well.
